To climb to the top of this small hill, it is best to approach it through Leith Walk and continue on to Royal Terrace and Regent Terrace. As you ascend, you will see old buildings such as the Royal High School and The Calton Jail, a prison that opened in 1817. The most interesting thing is to contemplate the city from its heights and then, eventually, to gain a little more altitude by climbing the tower of the Nelson Monument. Carlton Hill offers one of the most beautiful views of the city, with a panorama that sets the castle ablaze like the Fife of Forth.
